This can affect osseous integrity, joint function and soft tissue tension, resulting in pain, in- stability, joint degeneration, organ dys function, and many of the neurological effects of TBI (concussion), due to cra- nial bone deformity. Based on this new evidence, as Regis- tered Massage Therapists, we need to ad- dress these actual changes in bone struc- ture, in order to fully restore function For example, if the femoral head is enlarged, the hip joint will become in- flamed and painful, leading to degener- ation and the possible need for surgery. Matrix Repatterning is a gentle, evi- dence-based assessment and treatment system, which can restore normal bone structure within a few minutes, allow- ing many hip, knee, shoulder and spinal surgeries to be avoided. Measureable Change in Bone Size These remarkable results are lasting and dramatic, and have been verified by independent radiologists, researchers, and clinicians. This treatment system will allow your clients to move on from their limiting conditions and enjoy life without pain. “Matrix Repatterning is a rational, logical jewel of a technique with repro- ducible results.” Fiona Rattray RMT, Linda Ludwig RMT, Authors of Clinical Massage Therapy “This procedure can be very helpful for… TBI and other head injuries, even as a first intervention. Observing such cases has led me to hope that one day Matrix Repatterning will be routinely applied in hospital emergency departments.” D r.
